Outdoor adventure and fun await among the 160 building and craft projects here, including a playhouse that can be easily disassembled and stored in a closet; a table fork transformed into a little garden rake; a folding table and chairs for tea parties; a musical windmill; and a bird feeder made from mixing bowls. Here too are a practical canoe, a toboggan, and a camper's lantern made from a tin can. Following previous books in this series that offered building projects of interest to boys (though we would never dream of saying they were only for boys), this nostalgic collection of projects from the pages of Popular Mechanics features crafts that might be more interesting to girls 8 and up. Some can be completed by a capable child alone while others will require adult help, but all of them offer a glimpse of an era when fun was homemade.
